Things you miss from being single
I love being married, but there are certain things I really miss from single life (and some of them are very silly). For example I miss being the only one who watched my TiVo. If I had already watched something I could delete it without worrying whether someone else would want to see it 
what random things do you miss from being single?

Re: Things you miss from being single
I miss flirting with men. Not all the time,but I loved getting dressed up and flirting with guys when I was out. It was an ego boost! I suppose I sometimes miss just the going out and being social! I'm not sure the change in going out has anything to do with me being married though
This. Everything else associated with being single I can get my fill of when H is away for work. Like right now, I've made myself a dahl that I love but H doesn't really, so I don't make it when he's around.
I used to miss flirting with men, especially because STBXH gave me no attention whatsoever.
I missed making just an entire bag of edamame for dinner--men eat so much! I hated having to make big dinners that I really wasn't interested in.

This sounds awesome and makes me want a tv in our bedroom too!
I miss lots of things already mentioned . . . living alone or with girlfriends, first kisses, spending whole paychecks on shoes/clothes/makeup.
Oh! I really miss this too!
I will tell you what I have come to love about being single:
- First kisses. There are some guys I just want to kiss, even though I know it has zero potential.
- Lazy weekends whenever I want. I can choose to get up and do stuff, or I can choose to laze in bed or curl up with a book, and I don't have to worry about aligning my chores/errands/relaxing/socializing schedule with ExH.
- Attending cool events. First, my single friends have a much better finger on the pulse of the city, so without ExH, I get invited to more concerts and talks and dance parties. And ExH had a tendency to be very judgy. I went to a Pecha Kucha night last night, and it was a blast (even the terrible presenters), but I think ExH would have spoiled the fun by being too judgmental.

Having my own bed
Going out on a Friday night, partying and coming home on Sundays. I go out to clubs here and there, but I can't party like I used to. This could also be me missing being young, lol.
General Neatness. Men (or maybe it's just my DH) are so messy.
Generally speaking I don't miss anything about being single except the luxury of deciding to have a "day off" once in a while where I can literally decide to not cook, not clean, not get dressed, not do chores/errands/whatever. Even with DH around if I said I needed a day to veg and he could go do whatever he waned that would be cool. So that's less about being single and more about being a parent.
Ok, next weekend I'm going out with friends, while I don't move to U.S
